Ingredients

• 1 cup cornmeal
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
• 2 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 2/3 cups vegetable oil
• 1/3 cup melted unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp honey
• 4 eggs, beaten
• 2 ½ cups milk

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray, ensuring that your cornbread won’t stick.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, melted butter, honey, beaten eggs, and milk until smooth and well combined.
4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix. A few lumps are okay; they’ll disappear during baking.
5. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and cracks start to form.
6. Serve: Once baked, remove the cornbread from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy the irresistible aroma and flavor of freshly baked cornbread!
